About the role

We are seeking a DSP Engineer to join our team and help develop, integrate, and support real-time signal processing software across a range of embedded hardware platforms. In this role, you will contribute to DSP application development, performance-critical kernel implementation, and system integration within complex SoC-based systems. You will work closely with Algorithm, Architecture, Silicon, and Embedded Software teams to integrate signal processing pipelines into production environments, support silicon bring-up, and ensure robust, high-quality system performance. This position is well suited for early-career engineers with a strong interest in embedded systems, DSP applications, and hands-on system-level integration.

What you'll do

  • Support the development and integration of DSP applications within embedded SoC environments
  • Collaborate closely with algorithm engineers to integrate and validate signal processing algorithms in production software
  • Implement and optimize DSP software, including performance-critical kernels and vectorized implementations on DSP or vector processors
  • Participate in system-level integration efforts spanning hardware and software boundaries
  • Debug and resolve issues related to performance, numerical behavior, and real-time constraints
  • Develop and maintain testing frameworks, validation tools, and code acceptance infrastructure
  • Build automated testing, regression testing, and performance validation tools using Python and scripting languages
  • Work with Architecture, Silicon, Verification, and Embedded Software teams to ensure correct end-to-end integration
  • Contribute to improvements in build systems, internal tools, and engineering workflows

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
  • 1–3 years of experience in embedded software development, DSP-related engineering, or relevant academic projects
  • Proficiency in C or C++ for embedded or performance-sensitive applications
  • Experience using Python for test automation, validation, or data analysis
  • Solid understanding of digital signal processing fundamentals
  • Basic knowledge of real-time or embedded systems concepts
  • Strong debugging, problem-solving, and analytical skills
  • Ability to work effectively in a collaborative, cross-functional engineering environment

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience implementing or optimizing DSP algorithms
  • Familiarity with vector processors, SIMD architectures, or DSP platforms
  • Experience with MATLAB or Python for algorithm validation and prototyping
  • Exposure to embedded SoC platforms and heterogeneous compute architectures
  • Familiarity with RTOS environments or embedded Linux
  • Experience developing test frameworks, validation tools, or CI pipelines

Benefits (subject to location and local regulations)

  • Competitive salary and equity 
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage 
  • 401(k) retirement plan 
  • Flexible vacation and time-off policy 
  • Collaborative, fast-paced, and inclusive work environment
